Fluoride On My Mind

Wednesday, April 04, 2007

The controversial topic of water fluoridation continues to resurface in our community on a regular basis. So the question can be posed is fluoride safe? Like anything, too much of good thing can be bad, but at optimal levels fluoridated water poses virtually no health risk to anyone. Water fluoridation is inexpensive and the impact on a communities oral health is tremendous! Statistics show, according the March 2007 issue of Today's Florida Dental Association, that for most cities every $1 invested in community water fluoridation save $38 in dental treatment.
Fluoride is an incredible ally in fighting tooth decay. It reverses the demineralization process, preventing cavities and strengthening tooth enamel, enhancing the tooth resistance to acids present in the mouth. Where I believe we have a big bonus for our children, is that ingesting fluoride as they are developing their teeth, allows them to erupt as teeth which are significantly more resistant to tooth decay.
Fluoride is just one of many weapon that the dental community has to help our clients be healthier. With all of it's aid, it still does not alleviate the need for flossing, brushing and regular visits to the hygienist. Please take the time to call our office at 394-9000 and schedule your next appointment! Kenneth A. Mogell, D.M.D.
